Family Reunion

The family reunion is coming up on the 20 June. We are having a reunion marathon. We will be walking or running around the block on saturday morning so get prepared. If you don't feel like you can do the walk or run we will need lots of help with lead cars and behind cars and water and first aid and encouragment etc. There are lots of other activities to be planned also, so pass it on in your blogs and let everyone know that it is the 20th of June, at Kilgore or Bust.

Blessings

Sometimes, like tonight when my body hurts and my mind aches and I can't sleep, it is easy to forget all of the blessings that the Lord gives me. I can't number my blessings because they are so numerous. The Lord has truly had His hand in my life. If ever I need comfort it is there. When I do things wrong, which is frequently, He forgives. When I need comfort there is peace. So why am I struggling so tonight?
Why does my heart cry for relief because I feel so inadequate, and I can't do all and be all to all people? With all the beauty of the world there are still times of distress and grief and fortunately they are few and far between. I will focus on the beautiful things of this world and count my many blessings of family and friends. Love you all.
